Flirting
From
the male POV, flirting is the first step to having sex.
When
a female flirts, it means she likes the male.
These
are, of course, gross generalizations, but they’re useful when writing in any
genre.
Since
men are more visual on the average they are primarily attracted to a female who
looks good. In a flirt, if the flirt is returned, he decides how to advance,
given the words and body language he observes to guide him.
A
woman flirts. If the man returns the flirt, she immediately receives validation
of her attractiveness, which is often enough. She is also showing the male her
attraction.
I’m
sure nearly all of us recognize that when the opposite sex walks by there is a
difference in the way the opposites look at each other in comparison to the way
the same sex look at each other. For the opposites, there’s an acknowledgement,
much weaker than a flirt that what they see is attractive or at least an
acknowledgement of the way God made us.
Conflict
in flirts comes from the difference in the way men and women think. It is often
shown in the reactions to a cute meet by an expert writer. Flirts don’t end
after a cute meet or any other initial meeting. Couples often flirt with their
mate to encourage or show a need for sex. Here the male and female response is
closer in purpose. Realize the a female flirting with her mate might also be rewarding
him for his love.
Let
me finish where I started by saying that these simple rules are meant to be
broken, when it serves the story and reality.
